This study will provide valuable insights into the potential of digital interventions to enhance recovery and quality of life for patients undergoing major surgeries. The trial's findings, anticipated Q3 2027, will contribute to the growing body of evidence supporting digital prehabilitation and rehabilitation as effective means of improving surgical outcomes.
